Our list includes: HAIM, The Jackson Five, The National, Kings of Leon, The Bee-Gees, Radiohead, CocoRosie, and First Aid Kit.

It’s an eclectic mix of new releases this week, including some moody music out of the UK, led by trip-hop pioneer Tricky, whose latest album is, according to our Music Director, Don Yates, “his most focused effort in years” featuring the sounds he’s most known for, i.e. “gloomy, mostly downtempo beats and haunting textures withRead more…

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds also participated in Record Store day this weekend – they’ve released a previously unheard song, “Animal X,” from the studio session for Push The Sky Away. Somethings screeching in the background, while Nick Cave’s signature almost spoken vocals grate over the top. [Pitchfork] Earlier today the prolific folk guitarist and singerRead more…

Also included are a splash of Cibelle, Jack Wilson, LAKE, Rose’s Pawn Shop, Spoonshine, and Unbunny. Finally, we top off the collection with a sprinkling of Sallie FordRead more…

The all-ages CocoRosie show in Seattle happened on Friday night at Showbox at the Market and they brought Brazilian-born-London-based singer Cibelle to be the opener. Cibelle is a quirky character that has her stage (and herself) decorated with feathers and glitter — lots of glitter. She didn’t have a band, just an electric guitar andRead more…
